As we continue in Ephesians 2, we’re reminded of how God loves us even when we are of no value at all.

We return to Ephesians in a new series in the second chapter and to start us off Pastor Tim reflects on our state without God.

As we wrap up our series in John 5, we are confronted with the most important question: do we believe His words?

We are right to realize we can’t do it all and that we need God’s Word to guide us. But if in our pursuit of doing things right before God, we miss Him, what have we accomplished?

Lots of things claim to be of value — but which ones really are? Which ones are just so much “Monopoly money”? Pastor Tim explores the question as we continue in John 5 tonight.

We all want justice against the wrongs we see and experience, but Jesus calls us to better understand just what we really need.

We need something that won’t break right away, but everything in life seems to. Jesus addresses what we need and then gets to the deeper thing we need below that.

Last week we looked at solutions we try to find meaning and validation. But they fall short. Thankfully, God has a better plan for us.

God wants us to jump in the pool of grace to swim, not to struggle. How we interact with His grace makes all the difference in our experience of the Christian life.

When a mess lands in our lap—whether it’s the fallen world’s doing or our own—the natural move is to grab control and start fixing, doubling down on whatever we think will work. In Genesis 28, two sons of the same broken family face that same moment, and the difference between how they respond reaches right into the choices we face today.
